UConn Huskies star Paige Bueckers is living her best life in the offseason of women's college basketball. She has been enjoying herself creating LEGO sets and spending time with her family members. Apart from that, the two-time Player of the Year winner attended several WNBA and NBA games.
To give a quick roundup of the fun she has been having, she uploaded a series of stylish snaps from the night she attended Game 2 of the NBA Finals.
The caption of the post was:
"Life is great🫶🏼"
The pictures also included snaps from the recent Washington Mystics game she attended to support her former teammate Aaliyah Edwards. Then there was a snap from a practice session at the Huskies gym facility and her striking a candid pose in a Washington Spirit jersey.

Paige Bueckers is looking forward to taking on the responsibilities as the new season approaches
The UConn star is ready to lead the Huskies to another successful year in the upcoming women's basketball season. But Paige Bueckers will not have Aaliyah Edwards and Nika Muhl as they are now high-performing rookies in the WNBA.
Now that her roles have drastically changed, she elaborated more on it:
"It's crazy. Because I feel like I don't have Nika, I don't have Aaliyah. So, it's really all on me. And it's mostly my responsibility. Obviously, Aubrey (Griffin), Azzi (Fudd) and other upperclassmen, but I'm the only one on the court right now. So, I'm taking that responsibility, and I'm doing it with pride.
"I'm making sure that I'm leading these young guys, being a voice for them, leading them, teaching, communicating. And also leading by example in what I do on the court and off the court."
The Huskies were edged out of the 2024 NCAA Tournament in the Final Four by the Caitlin Clark-led Iowa Hawkeyes. Despite the loss, the team gained much respect, and is the favorite to win the national championship next year.
